The Old Q Bar at the Queensberry Hotel

The Queensberry Hotel’s Old Q bar is one of Bath’s most subtly glamorous hidden gems and the cocktail list a connoisseur’s joy to behold – there are no budget blends or middling mixers sullying the alcohol-infused waters here, and if you can’t see exactly what you want on the list, expert mixologists are on hand to offer recommendations. The fizz-based specialities are fabulous, and the Manhattan is reputed to be the best in our non-stateside town.

Find it on: Russel Street. Open until: residential hotel hours
